More Transformers That Are Tow Trucks
For some odd reason, I decided to photograph all of the tow trucks out of my Transformers collection, apparently to show that there aren’t too many. But maybe I was too hasty? It turns out that there were some Micromaster tow trucks towards the tail end of the G1 line. I just started collecting Micromasters recently, so I didn’t realize that these existed. But who doesn’t want new tow trucks?
Excavator, from the Constructor Squad, was half of a Micromaster combiner tow truck. The front end of the truck, Stonecrusher, also has a towing hook. So they can drag people around both coming and going. Slow Poke, from the Monster Truck Patrol, also has a towing hook. I’m not sure why a monster truck would need to tow somebody, but maybe other monster trucks are prone to breakdowns?
And then the movie series added a repaint of Longarm, this time decorated like the truck that Mikaela drove in the movie (complete with paraplegic Bumblebee). The inside of the package is painted up like the scene from the movie, so it’s a decent representation all by itself. This set is pretty nice, considering that we get half a Mikaela in the driver’s seat. Look, she’s acting!
